Rocket League:

Gameplay is fine, but all menus and any non-gameplay GUI freezes and the music track stops. Especially bad at startup, the issue will sometimes go away after a while but usually does not. This makes navigating menus sometimes impossible, and things like car customization impossible. Once in a match, the game runs flawlessly.

Ubuntu 16.04
Kernel 4.9
Mesa 13.0.3 (Padol Mesa PPA)
LLVM 3.9.1
MSI 8GB RX 480

Anyone else have this? A recent update seems to have triggered it as it used to work fine.

EDIT
There's a bug report for that already, but it would be good for Valve to see it as well:
[[amdgpu] Rocket League: long hangs (several seconds) when loading assets (models/textures/shaders?)](https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97879 [External Link])

I'm curious about the game, but the store page claims 'partial' Controller support. What do they mean by 'partial'? Do you need the kb / mouse for some parts of it? Or can it be played on the couch exclusively once set-up?

EDIT: Fixed a typo.

Quoting: M@yeulCI wish it was bundled on Steam. I guess they could try to sell it/make it available on Steam as a mod.

Is it the case on GOG? I wish a client would take care of the updates, though.

If you check the Wiki there are official repos available for several major distros. I picked up Morrowind on Steam today because of OpenMW. Looking forward to playing!

I didn't get a free key, but hey the game is only $0.99. So of course I bought it. If I only get an hour or so of game time out if it then the investment was well worth it.

Meh. Another promising racer title that, sadly, never came.

Just as an update in case anyone comes across this post, the game is no longer listed for Linux in the Steam store. Not sure why, it's said the game is made using Unity so Linux support should not be a big deal. Was going to pick it up for $5, but listing as only having partial controller support was a turn-off. Followed by the fact that it's just no longer there for Linux anyway. Man we need some good racers on Linux!

Quoting: GuestGOG has a DOSbox wrap of the Pinball Dreams series, although sadly I can’t recommend it. Better play the original Amiga games in UAE.

The Pinball Illusions pack in that bundle is awesome, and the music is awesome, and you even get a previously-unreleased table. For $10 I can whole-hartedly recommended Pinball Dreams.

No activity on this game from devs on the official forums for a while - seems kind of dead. Was looking at this game today, but there's no announcement of the other two original tables being available. So for now I will wait until this game gets discounted and then pick it up. That is, unless an announcement is made in the meantime.
